The gauge doesn't work at all when using the rear tank. It's a hassle because if the front tank stops working and I can only use the back tank. This is very dangerous because what if I run out of gas on the highway!

I can fill both tanks and run on rear tank till empty, then run on front but the truck will run out of gas ant anytime it wants. It'll cut out on freeway, through intersections or while accelerating after take off through an intersection. I've replace sending unit, and pick up screen. Also changed the fuel regulator and had to have the wiring fixed for it being melted from over heating. The cost was $300.00 but the trouble still continues. This can be a hazard and I now have a check engine that won't go off.
